My motor is a pump gas motor with only 580 lift cam and 10:1 compression, built to be a daily driver if I so choose, 550 hp 516 tq. Internal oiling and stock valve train, with stock type chrome valve covers. I am doing the shock tower mod to give me a little more room if I decide to change heads and valve train. I'm pretty sure I will be putting it in from the bottom as I have spoken to quite a few who have done it that way and say its a lot easier. The pics you posted help a lot, thanks. I will be taking my car to my chassis guy in a couple weeks once I make a decision on what bell housing to use, my car is a stick car.

I guess one question, what torsion bars are running.

Is your k member guys name Denny?

Those kind of numbers will more than knock your socks off in that car & be street friendly too.. You'll enjoy it, specially rowin' gears doing it..
You won't regret doing the shock tower mod.
You'll probably want to put a scattershield on it for your toes sake, a 2 piece with access from the bottom is preferable. Depending on engine location, will dictate whether you"ll have to modify the firewall to floorpan flange & you may want to drill holes in the firewall for the top 2 bellhousing retaining bolts, then install those snap in plugs.

I'm currently running the small block bars in my car. I tried the 6 cyl. ones, but didn't like them because of excessive front end rise, & they were wound too tight for my comfort, street driving it.

My K member connection is Al in WI.
